MT9V125: SOC VGA Digital Image SensorGeneral Description
General DescriptionThe ON Semiconductor MT9V125 is a VGA-format, single-chip camera CMOS active-pixel digital image sensor. It captures high-quality color images at VGA resolution and outputs NTSC or PAL interlaced composite video.
This VGA CMOS image sensor features ON Semiconductor’s breakthrough technology—a low-noise CMOS imaging technology that achieves CCD image quality (based on signal-to-noise ratio and low-light sensitivity) while maintaining the inherent size, cost, low-power, and integration advantages of CMOS.
The sensor is a complete camera-on-a-chip solution. It incorporates sophisticated camera functions on-chip and is programmable through a simple two-wire serial inter-face.
The MT9V125 performs sophisticated processing functions including color recovery, color correction, sharpening, programmable gamma correction, auto black reference clamping, auto exposure, automatic 50/60Hz flicker avoidance, lens shading correction, auto white balance (AWB), and on-the-fly defect identification and correction.
The MT9V125 outputs interlaced-scan images at 30 or 25 fps, supporting both NTSC and PAL video formats.
The image data can be output on any one of three output ports:• Composite analog video (support for both single-ended and differential-ended)• Low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS)• Parallel 8-bit digital
Functional OverviewThe MT9V125 is a fully-automatic, single-chip camera, requiring only a single power supply, lens, and clock source for basic operation. Output video is streamed through the chosen output port. The MT9V125 internal registers are configured using a two-wire serial interface.
The device can be put into a low-power sleep mode by asserting STANDBY and shutting down the clock. Output signals can be tri-stated. Both tri-stating output signals and entry into standby mode can be achieved through two-wire serial interface register writes.
The MT9V125 requires an input clock of 27 MHz to support correct NTSC or PAL timing.
Internal Architecture
Internally, the MT9V125 consists of a sensor core and an image flow processor (IFP). The sensor core captures raw images that are then input into the IFP. The IFP is divided in two sections: the color pipe and the camera controller. The color pipe section processes the incoming stream to create interpolated, color-corrected output, and the camera controller section controls the sensor core to maintain the desired exposure and color balance.
The IFP scales the image and an integrated video encoder generates either NTSC or PAL analog composite output. The MT9V125 supports three different output ports: analog composite video out, LVDS serial out, and parallel data out.

MT9V125: SOC VGA Digital Image SensorTypical Connections
Typical ConnectionsFigure 3 shows a detailed MT9V125 device configuration. For low-noise operation, the MT9V125 requires separate analog and digital power supplies. Incoming digital and analog ground conductors can be tied together next to the die.
Power supply voltages VAA (the primary analog voltage) and VAAPIX (the main voltage to the pixel array) should be decoupled from ground with an LC filter. The MT9V125 requires a single external voltage supply level.
Figure 3: Typical Configuration Without Use of Overlay
Notes: 1. MT9V125 STANDBY can be connected directly to the customer’s ASIC controller or to DGND, depend-ing on the controller’s capability.
2. A 1.5K resistor value is recommended, but may be greater for slower two-wire speed (for exam-ple, 100 KB/sec).
3. LVDS_ENABLE must be tied HIGH if LVDS is to be used.4. Pull down DAC_REF with a 2.8K resistor for 1.0V peak-to-peak video output.5. VAA and VAAPIX must be tied to the same potential for proper operation.6. Low pass filter (3dB attenuation at 4.2 MHz).

MT9V125: SOC VGA Digital Image SensorDetailed Architecture Overview
The black row data are used internally for the automatic black level adjustment. However, these black rows can also be read out by setting the sensor to raw data output mode.
There are 649 columns by 498 rows of optically-active pixels that include a pixel boundary around the VGA (640 x 480) image to avoid boundary effects during color interpolation and correction.
The one additional active column and two additional active rows are used to enable horizontally and vertically mirrored readout to start on the same color pixel.
Figure 7 illustrates the process of capturing the image. The original scene is flipped and mirrored by the sensor optics. Sensor readout starts at the lower right corner. The image is presented in true orientation by the output display.

MT9V125: SOC VGA Digital Image SensorDetailed Architecture Overview
The sensor core uses a paired RGB Bayer color pattern, as shown in Figure 8. Row pairs consist of the following: rows 0, 1, rows 2, 3, rows 4, 5, and so on. The even-numbered row pairs (0/1, 4/5, and so on) in the active array contain green and red pixels. The odd-numbered row pairs (2/3, 6/7, and so on) contain blue and green pixels. The odd-numbered columns contain green and blue pixels; even-numbered columns contain red and green pixels.
Figure 8: Pixel Color Pattern Detail (top right corner)
Output Data Format
The sensor core image data are read out in an interlaced scan order. Progressive readout—which is not supported by the color pipe—is an option, but is only intended for raw data output. Valid image data are surrounded by horizontal and vertical blanking, shown in Figure 9 on page 14.
For NTSC output, the horizontal size is stretched from 640 to 720 pixels. The vertical size is 243 pixels per field; 240 image pixels and 3 dark pixels that are located at the bottom of the image field.
For PAL output, the horizontal size is also stretched from 640 to 720 pixels. The vertical size is 288 pixels per field; 240 image pixels with 24 dark pixels at the top of the image and 24 dark pixels at the bottom of the image field.

MT9V125: SOC VGA Digital Image SensorDetailed Architecture Overview
Image Flow Processor (IFP)
The MT9V125 IFP consists of a color processing pipeline as well as a measurement and control logic block (the camera controller)—see Figure 10 on page 16. The stream of raw data from the sensor enters the pipeline and undergoes several transformations. Image stream processing starts with conditioning the black level and applying a digital gain. The lens shading block compensates for signal loss caused by the lens.
Next, the data is interpolated to recover missing color components for each pixel. The resulting interpolated RGB data passes through the current color correction matrix (CCM), gamma, and saturation corrections, and is formatted for final output.
The measurement and control logic continuously accumulate image brightness and color statistics. Based on these measurements, the IFP calculates updated values for exposure time and sensor analog gains that are sent to the sensor core via the control bus.
Black Level Conditioning
The sensor core black level calibration works to maintain black pixel values at a constant level, independent of analog gain, reference current, voltage settings, and temperature conditions. If this black level is above zero, it must be reduced before color processing can begin. The black level subtraction block in the IFP re-maps the black level of the sensor to zero prior to lens shading correction. Following lens shading correction, the black level addition block provides capability for another black level adjustment. However, for good contrast, this level should be set to zero.
Digital Gain
Controlled by auto exposure logic, the input digital gain stage amplifies the raw image in low-light conditions (range: x1–x8).
Test Pattern
A built-in test pattern generator produces a test image stream that can be multiplexed with the gain stage. The test pattern can be selected through register settings (see R72:1). There is another set of test patterns at the end of the color pipe that can be selected through register R155:1[5:4]. (See “Register Notation” on page 4 of the register reference.)

MT9V125: SOC VGA Digital Image SensorDetailed Architecture Overview
Notes: 1. NTSC encoder/DAC not shown
Lens Shading Correction (LC)
Inexpensive lenses tend to attenuate image intensity near the edges of pixel arrays. Other factors also cause signal and coloration differences across the image. The net result of all these factors is known as lens shading. Lens shading correction (LC) compensates for these differences.
Typically, the profile of lens shading-induced anomalies across the frame is different for each color component. Therefore, LC is independently calibrated for the color channels.
Interpolation and Aperture Correction
A demosaic engine converts the single-color-per-pixel Bayer data from the sensor into RGB (10-bit per color channel). The demosaic algorithm analyzes neighboring pixels to generate a best guess for the missing color components. Edge sharpness is preserved as much as possible.
Aperture correction sharpens the image by an adjustable amount. To avoid amplifying noise, sharpening can be programmed to phase out as light levels drop.
Defect Correction
This device supports 2D defect correction. In 2D defect detection and correction, pixels with values different from their neighbors by greater than a defined threshold are considered defects unless near the image boundary. The approach is termed 2D, as pixels on neighboring lines as well as neighboring pixels on the same line are considered in both detection and correction.
In Figure 10 on page 16, the register kernel gathers same color pixels and send the infor-mation to the 2D defect correction engine.
Color Correction
To obtain good color rendition and saturation, it is necessary to compensate for the differences between the spectral characteristics of the imager color filter array and the spectral response of the human eye. This compensation, also known as color separation, is achieved through linear transformation of the image with a 3 x 3 element color correc-tion matrix. The optimal values for the color correction coefficients depend on the spectra of the incident illumination and can be programmed by the user.
Color Saturation Control
For noise reduction, both color saturation and sharpness enhancement can be set by the user or adjusted automatically by tracking the magnitude of the gains used by the auto exposure algorithm.
Automatic White Balance (AWB)
The MT9V125 has a built-in AWB algorithm designed to compensate for the effects of changing scene illumination on the color rendition quality. This sophisticated algorithm consists of three major submodules: • A measurement engine (ME) performing statistical analysis of the image• A module selecting the optimal color correction matrix• A module selecting the analog color channel gains in the sensor core
MT9V125_DS Rev.. W 6/15 EN 17 ©Semiconductor Components Industries, LLC,2015.
MT9V125: SOC VGA Digital Image SensorDetailed Architecture Overview
While the default algorithm settings are adequate in most situations, the user can repro-gram base color correction matrices and limit color channel gains. The AWB does not attempt to locate the brightest or grayest elements in the image; it performs in-depth image analysis to differentiate between changes in predominant spectra of illumination and changes in predominant scene colors. Factory defaults are suitable for most appli-cations; however, a wide range of algorithm parameters can be overwritten by the user through the serial interface.
AWB Measurment Window
Register R0x22D specifies the boundaries of the window used by the WB measurement engine. It describes the size of the window within the image. Horizontally, the image value varies from 0 to 9 (64 pixels per unit). Vertically, the image value varies from 0 to 6 (32 lines per unit on a per field basis). See Figure 12 for an example of adjusting the AWB window size (R0x22D = 0x5281).
The values in R0x22D are the desired boundaries, in units of square blocks of pixels vertically and horizontally. The size of the block is determined by the resolution of the image seen by the WB measurement engine. For NTSC/PAL the size of the block is fixed at 64 x 32 pixels.

MT9V125: SOC VGA Digital Image SensorDetailed Architecture Overview
Auto Exposure
The auto exposure algorithm performs automatic adjustments to image brightness by controlling exposure time and analog gains in the sensor core, as well as digital gain applied to the image. The algorithm relies on the auto exposure measurement engine that tracks speed and amplitude changes in the overall luminance of selected windows in the image.
Backlight compensation is achieved by weighting the luminance in the center of the image higher than the luminance on the periphery. Other algorithm features include: fast-fluctuating illumination rejection (time-averaging), response-speed control, and controlled sensitivity to small changes.
While the default settings are adequate in most situations, the user can program target brightness, measurement window, and other parameters, as described above. The auto exposure algorithm enables compensation for a broad range of illumination intensities.
Automatic Flicker Detection
Flicker occurs when integration time is not an integer multiple of the period of the light intensity. The automatic flicker detection block does not compensate for the flicker; it reduces flicker occurrence by detecting flicker frequency and adjusting the integration time. For integration times shorter than the light intensity period (10ms for 50Hz envi-ronments and 8.33ms for 60Hz environments), flicker is unavoidable.
Gamma Correction
To achieve more life-like quality in an image, the IFP includes gamma correction and color saturation control. Gamma correction operates on the luminance component of the image and enables compensation for nonlinear dependence of the display device output versus the driving signal (for example, monitor brightness versus CRT voltage).
In addition, gamma correction provides range compression, converting 10-bit lumi-nance input to 8-bit output. Pre-gamma image processing generates 10-bit luminance values ranging from 0 to 896. Piecewise linear gamma correction utilized in this imager has 10 linear intervals, with end points corresponding to the following input values:
Xi=0…10 = {0,16,32,64,128,256,384,512,640,768,896}
For each input value Xi, the user can program the corresponding output value Yi. Yi values must be monotonically increasing.
NTSC and PAL Encoder Formats Supported
The MT9V125 has an on-chip video encoder to format the data stream for composite video output in the supported NTSC or PAL formats. The encoder expects CCIR-656 interlaced NTSC or PAL data stream input. By default, the input is taken from the on-chip image stream. Input can also be taken from the external 8-bit DIN[7:0] port for external image processing used with the on-chip video encoder and composite output.
MT9V125 Readout Modes
NTSC and PAL are two of the target output formats for the MT9V125. Table 4 on page 20 identifies registers used to set NTSC or PAL modes.

MT9V125: SOC VGA Digital Image SensorDetailed Architecture Overview
Bayer Output
Unprocessed paired Bayer data are generated when bypassing the IFP completely—that is, by simply outputting the sensor-paired Bayer stream as usual, using FV, LV, and PIXCLK to time the data. This mode is called sensor stand-alone mode.
Output Ports
Composite Video Output
The composite video output DAC is external-resistor-programmable and supports both single-ended and differential output. The DAC is driven by the on-chip video encoder output.
Serial Data Output
The processed image data stream can be output to the LVDS output port.
Parallel Output
Parallel output uses either 8-bit or 10-bit output. Eight-bit output is used for ITU-R BT.656 and RGB output. Ten-bit output is used for raw Bayer output.

MT9V125: SOC VGA Digital Image SensorDetailed Architecture Overview
Figure 14 shows the MT9V125 in sensor stand-alone mode. Raw Bayer data from the sensor bypasses the IFP to be output directly. Only parallel output is available for this mode.
Figure 14: MT9V125 in Sensor Stand-Alone Mode
Figure 15 on page 25 shows the MT9V125 in overlay output mode that allows the MT9V125 to be configured with an external DSP for text or image overlay.
Processed sensor data in CCIR 656 format is output as parallel data (DOUT[7-0]). This data is input to a user-supplied DSP that overlays text or graphics on the processed sensor image. DSP outputs CCIR 656 image with overlay which is input through the DIN port to be multiplexed at the encoder. This encoded data is output as analog composite video (NTSC or PAL).

MT9V125: SOC VGA Digital Image SensorSensor Core Modes and Timing
Sensor Core Modes and Timing This section provides an overview of usage modes for the MT9V125 sensor core. An over-view of typical usage modes for the complete MT9V125 is provided in “Modes and Timing” on page 33.
Readout Format
The sensor core supports two basic readout formats: interlaced and progressive. The interlaced format supports both NTSC and PAL timing. Progressive readout is intended for sensor stand-alone mode only (this is due to the paired Bayer pattern CFA).
Window Control
The window size and position need to be at the default settings for correct NTSC or PAL format support.
Window Start
The row and column start address of the displayed image can be set by R1:0 (row start) and R2:0 (column start).
Window Size
The default sensor resolution is 640 columns and 480 rows (VGA). For NTSC and PAL, this is expanded by the horizontal interpolator module to 720 columns. For proper NTSC or PAL operation, use only the default window size.
Pixel Border
When R32:0, Bits[9:8] are both set, a 4-pixel border will be added around the specified image. When enabled, the row and column widths will be 8 pixels larger than the values programmed in the row and column registers. If the border is enabled but not shown in the image (R32:0[9:8] = 01), the horizontal blanking and vertical blanking values will be 8 pixels larger than the values programmed into the blanking registers. For proper NTSC or PAL operation, use only default values in the above mentioned registers.
The border is read in an interlaced pattern when in interlaced readout mode. Each field has its own interlaced border on top and bottom of the active array.
Sensor Core Readout Modes
Column Mirror Image
At reset, the HORIZ_FLIP input pin is latched into R30:1[1]. This bit is XORed with register R21:1[1]. The result determines if horizontal flip is enabled (result = 1) or disabled (result = 0). Figure 16 on page 27 illustrates the readout order of the columns when they are reversed. The starting color is preserved when mirroring the columns.
Row Mirror Image
By setting R32:0[0] = 1, the readout order of the rows will be reversed, as shown in Figure 17 on page 27. The starting color is preserved when mirroring the rows.

Frame Rate Control
Operating Mode
Actual frame rates can be tuned by adjusting various sensor parameters. The sensor registers are in address page 0, some of which are shown in Table 7 on page 28.
Typical settings and parameters for NTSC and PAL modes are shown in Table 8 on page 23.
For a given window size, the blanking registers (R0x005, R0x006, R0x011) can be used to set a particular frame rate.

MT9V125: SOC VGA Digital Image SensorSensor Core Modes and Timing
The sensor timing (Table 8 on page 28) is shown in terms of pixel clock and master clock cycles. The required master clock frequency is 27 MHz. The vertical blanking and total frame time equations assume that the number of integration rows (R0x009) is less than the number of active rows, plus blanking rows. If this is not the case, the number of inte-gration rows must be used instead to determine the frame time.
In the MT9V125, the sensor core adds four border pixels all the way around the image, taking the active image size to 648 x 488. This is achieved through the default of oversize and show border bits set.
NTSC mode has 525 rows per frame; PAL mode has 625 rows per frame as enumerated below (all values in rows):
(EQ 1)
NTSC: (EQ 2)
PAL: (EQ 3)
Blanking Calculations
When calculating blanking, minimum values for horizontal blanking and vertical blanking must be taken into account. Table 8 shows minimum values for each register. This is valid for non NTSC or PAL modes only.

MT9V125: SOC VGA Digital Image SensorSensor Core Modes and Timing
Minimum Horizontal Blanking (in sensor stand-alone mode)
The minimum horizontal blanking value is constrained by the time used for sampling a row of pixels and the overhead in the row readout. This can be expressed in an equation as:
(EQ 4)
(EQ 5)
(EQ 6)
where:
(EQ 7)
(EQ 8)
with default settings:
To get an aggressive minimum value for the horizontal blanking, the larger of R0x079[15:8] and R0x076[15:8] can be substituted for the R0x07E value in the above equation. With default settings, this gives a minimum HBLANK time of 127.
Valid Data Signals Options
LINE_VALID Signal
By setting bits[15:14] of R32:0, the LV signal is programmed for three different output formats. The formats shown below illustrate reading out four rows and two vertical blanking rows (Figure 18 on page 30).
The default line valid format is shown first; continuous line valid is shown second. In the last format, the LV signal is exclusive ORed (XOR) between the continuous LV signal and the FV signal.

ntegration Time
Integration time is controlled by R0x009 (shutter width, in multiples of the row time) and R0x00C (shutter delay, in PIXCLK_PERIOD/2). R0x00C is used to control sub-row inte-gration times and will only have a visible effect for small values of R0x009. The total inte-gration time, tINT, is shown in the equations below (PIXCLK_PERIOD is in terms of master clock periods):

where:
(EQ 10)
(EQ 11)
(EQ 12)
with default settings for NTSC:
(EQ 13)

In this equation, the integration overhead corresponds to the delay between the row reset sequence and the row sample (read) sequence.

MT9V125: SOC VGA Digital Image SensorSensor Core Modes and Timing
The integration overhead shown is valid only for the default PIXCLK_PERIOD and default sample (R0x07E) and reset (R0x087) values.
Typically, the value of the shutter width register (R0x009) is limited to the number of rows per frame (which includes vertical blanking rows), such that the frame rate is not affected by the integration time.
If R0x009 is increased beyond the total number of rows per frame (525 for NTSC, 625 for PAL), the sensor will add additional blanking rows as needed and violate the frame time requirement of NTSC and PAL. However, the effective value of R0x009 is always limited by the settings in R0x013 and R0x014.
A second constraint is that tINT must be adjusted to avoid banding in the image caused by light flicker. This means that tINT must be a multiple of 1/120 of a second under 60Hz flicker, and a multiple of 1/100 of a second under 50Hz flicker.
Maximum Shutter Delay
The shutter delay can be used to reduce the integration time. A programmed value of N reduces the integration time by N master clock periods. The maximum shutter delay is set by the row time and the sample time, as shown in the equations below:
(EQ 15)
where:
(EQ 16)
(EQ 17)
(EQ 18)
with default settings:
(EQ 19)
(EQ 20)
If the value in this register exceeds the maximum value given by this equation, the sensor may not generate an image. Again, the overhead time shown in this equation is only valid for the default PIXCLK_PERIOD, and the default sample (R0x7E:0) and reset (R0x87:0) valuesFigure 19 on page 32, illustrates the integration time for each sensor row versus the shutter width. Odd rows are integrated first followed by even rows.

MT9V125: SOC VGA Digital Image SensorModes and Timing
Modes and TimingThis section provides an overview of the typical usage modes and related timing infor-mation for the MT9V125.
Composite Video Output
The analog composite video output is enabled by default and is the main usage mode for the MT9V125.
The external pin NTSC_PAL_SELECT can be used to configure the device for default NTSC or PAL operation. This and other video configuration settings are available as register settings accessible through the serial interface. For proper NTSC and PAL opera-tion, use only default register values.
NTSC
Both differential and single-ended connections of the full NTSC format are supported. The differential connection that uses two output lines is used for low noise or long distance applications. The single-ended connection is used for PCB tracks and screened cable where noise is not a concern. The NTSC format has three black lines at the bottom of each image for padding (which most LCDs do not display).
PAL
The PAL format is supported with 480 active image rows only. Black bars are padded on top and bottom of the image for PAL format support. The PAL format has 24 black lines at the top and bottom of each image for padding.
NTSC or PAL with External Image Processing
The on-chip video encoder and DAC can be used with external data stream input (DIN[7:0] port). Correct NTSC or PAL formatted CCIR656 data is required for correct composite video output.
This mode can typically be used together with data output on the parallel DOUT[7:0] port—for example, for external overlay solutions.
Single-Ended and Differential Composite Output
The composite output can be operated in a single-ended or differential mode by simply changing the external resistor configuration. For single-ended termination, two sche-matics are presented. The first is SMPTE-compliant; the second is a low-cost alternative.
For differential mode termination, the first differential schematic; Figure 22 on page 36, is SMPTE-compliant. The other two are lost-cost alternatives.
See Figure 20 on page 34 through Figure 24 on page 37 for termination schematics.
Note: The differential schematics have not been tested.

Serial (LVDS) Output
The serial high-speed output port supports the interlaced CCIR-656 data format.
The LVDS port is disabled by default, but can be enabled by the external pin LVDS_EN-ABLE. This pin must be asserted for LVDS to function. LVDS can be disabled through R29:1[13]. LVDS is also disabled when STANDBY is asserted.
The output LVDS format is the standard 12-bit package with 10-bit payload format supported by off-the-shelf deserializers, including National (DS92LV1212A), Maxim (MAX9205), and TI (SN65LV1212). An on-chip x12 PLL is included for high-speed LVDS clock generation. LVDS output clock speed is 324 MHz for CCIR support. Table 9 describes the LVDS packet format; Figure 25 on page 39 shows the LVDS data format.

Progressive
The DOUT[7:0] port also supports progressive, raw data output. The on-chip color processor does not support reading out the pixel array progressively, but the raw pixel data can be made available in sensor stand-alone mode.
Parallel Input (DIN)
The data-in port allows external CCIR656 data to be multiplexed into the NTSC or PAL output data. Figure 29 shows the timing of the data-in (DIN[7:0]) signals. Table 13 describes timing values for the parallel input waveform. Both mode 0 and mode 1 wave-forms are supported by the MT9V125.
Figure 29: Parallel Input Data Timing Waveform Using DIN_CLK
Notes: 1. If R19:1[4] = 1, then DIN_CLK is used to sample data on DIN bus.2. Setup and hold time is measured with respect to the rising or falling edge of DIN_CLK which can be
programmed by R19:1[3].

Interlaced Modes
True Interlaced
By default, the MT9V125 reads out the image array in a true interlaced fashion where each field maps to the odd and even rows respectively. The color pipe is supplied by a regular Bayer pattern data stream due to the “paired Bayer” CFA filters used with the pixel array, as described in “Pixel Array Structure” on page 11.
Mirroring
The MT9V125 supports both horizontal and vertical flips, regardless of the output format. Horizontal flip, column sequencing reversed, can be enabled by an external pin (HORIZ_FLIP) or a register setting (R21:1[1]). Vertical flip can be controlled through a register setting (R32:0[0]).

Reset, Clocks, and Standby
Reset
Power-up reset is asserted/de-asserted with the RESET_BAR pin, which is active LOW. In the reset state, all control registers are set to default values.
Soft reset is asserted/de-asserted by the two-wire serial interface program. In soft-reset mode, the two-wire serial interface and the register bus are still running. All control registers are reset using default values. See R13:0.
Clocks
The MT9V125 has three primary clocks:1. A master clock coming from the EXTCLK signal.2. A pixel clock using a clock-gated operation running at half frequency of the master
clock in sensor stand-alone mode and the same frequency as EXTCLK in SOC mode. 3. DIN_CLK that is associated with the parallel DIN port.
All device clocks are turned off in power-down mode. When the MT9V125 operates in sensor stand-alone mode, the image flow pipeline clocks can be shut off to conserve power. See R13:0.
The sensor core is a master in the system. The sensor core frame rate defines the overall image flow pipeline frame rate. Horizontal blanking and vertical blanking are influenced by the sensor configuration, and are also a function of certain image flow pipeline func-tions. The relationship of the primary clocks is depicted in Figure 31 on page 45.
The image flow pipeline typically generates up to 16 bits per pixel—for example, YCbCr or 565RGB—but has only an 8-bit port through which to communicate this pixel data.
To generate NTSC or PAL format images, the sensor core requires a 27 MHz clock.

Standby Pin
STANDBY is a multipurpose signal that controls three functions: low-power standby, the two-wire serial interface device address, and output signal state functions. Table 15 shows how STANDBY affects the output signal state.
Two-wire serial interface address is based on the SADDR pin XORed with the R13:0[10]; the R13:0[10] default is “0.” See Table 26 on page 57 for details. The R13:0[10] is not writ-able when STANDBY is asserted (“1”).
Hard standby is asserted or de-asserted on STANDBY, as described in “Power-Saving Modes” on page 47.

MT9V125: SOC VGA Digital Image SensorModes and Timing
Power-Saving Modes
The sensor can be put into the low-power standby state by either of the following mech-anisms:• Asserting STANDBY (provided that R13:0[7] = 0)• Setting R13:0[3:2] = 01 by performing a register write through the serial register inter-
face (R13:0[2]: analog standby = 1, R13:0[3]: chip enable = 0)
The two methods are equivalent and have the same effect:• The source of standby is synchronized and latched. Once latched, the full standby
sequence is completed even if the source of standby is removed.• The readout of the current row is completed.• Internal clocks are gated off.• The analog signal chain and associated current and voltage sources are placed in a
low-power state.
The standby state is maintained for as long as the standby source remains asserted. The state of the signal interface while in standby state is shown in Table 16.
While in standby, the state of the internal registers is maintained. The sensor continues to respond to accesses through its serial register interface when STANDBY is asserted through a register write, as described above. The serial register interface does not respond when standby mode is entered by asserting the external STANDBY pin.
An even lower-power standby state can be achieved by stopping the input clock (EXTCLK) while in standby. If the input clock is stopped, the sensor will not respond to accesses through its two-wire serial register interface.
Exit from standby must be through the same mechanism as entry to standby. When the standby source is negated:1. The internal clocks are restarted.2. The analog circuitry is restored to its normal operating state.3. The timing and control circuitry performs a restart, equivalent to writing
R13:0[1] = 1.
After this sequence has completed, normal operation is resumed. If the input clock has been stopped during standby it must be restarted before leaving standby.
Floating Inputs
The following MT9V125 pins cannot be floated:• DIN[7:0] (tie to GND if not used)• DIN_CLK (tie to GND if not used)• PEDESTAL—Valid for NTSC only, this pin should be pulled LOW for PAL• LVDS ENABLE—This pin must always be pulled HIGH if LVDS is used• SDATA—This pin is bidirectional and should not be floated

I/O Timing
Digital Output
By default, the MT9V125 launches pixel data, FV, and LV synchronously with the falling edge of PIXCLK. The expectation is that the user captures data, FV, and LV using the rising edge of PIXCLK. The timing diagram is shown in Figure 34.
As an option, the polarity of the PIXCLK can be inverted from the default. This is achieved by programming R155:1[9] to “0.”

MT9V125: SOC VGA Digital Image SensorAppendix A: Serial Bus Description
Appendix A: Serial Bus DescriptionRegisters are written to and read from the MT9V125 through the two-wire serial inter-face bus. The sensor is a serial interface slave controlled by the serial clock (SCLK), which is driven by the serial interface master. Data is transferred in and out of the MT9V125 through the serial data (SDATA) line. The SDATA and SCLK lines are pulled up to VDD off-chip by a 1.5K resistor. Either the slave or the master device can pull the SDATA line down—the serial interface protocol determines which device is allowed to pull the SDATA line down at any given time.
Protocol
The two-wire serial interface defines several different transmission codes, as follows:• a start bit• an acknowledge bit• a no-acknowledge bit• an 8-bit message• a stop bit• the slave device 8-bit address
The SADDR pin and R13:0[10] are used to select between two different addresses in case of conflict with another device. If SADDR XOR R13:0[10] is LOW, the slave address is 0x90; if SADDR XOR R13:0[10] is HIGH, the slave address is 0xBA. See Table 26 below.
Sequence
A typical read or write sequence begins with the master sending a start bit. After the start bit, the master sends the 8-bit slave device address. The last bit of the address determines if the request is a READ or a WRITE, where a “0” indicates a WRITE and a “1” indicates a READ. The slave device acknowledges its address by sending an acknowledge bit back to the master.
If the request was a write, the master transfers the 8-bit register address for where a WRITE should take place. The slave sends an acknowledge bit to indicate that the register address has been received. The master then transfers the data, 8 bits at a time, with the slave sending an acknowledge bit after each 8 bits.
The MT9V125 uses 16-bit data for its internal registers, thus requiring two 8-bit transfers to write to one register. After 16 bits are transferred, the register address is automatically incremented, so that the next 16 bits are written to the next register address. The master stops writing by sending a start or stop bit.
A typical read sequence is executed as follows. The master sends the write mode slave address and 8-bit register address, just as in the write request. The master then sends a start bit and the read mode slave address. The master clocks out the register data, 8 bits

at a time and sends an acknowledge bit after each 8-bit transfer. The register address is auto-incremented after every 16 bits is transferred. The data transfer is stopped when the master sends a no-acknowledge bit.
Bus Idle State
The bus is idle when both the data and clock lines are HIGH. Control of the bus is initi-ated with a start bit, and the bus is released with a stop bit. Only the master can generate the start and stop bits.

The start bit is defined as a HIGH-to-LOW transition of the data line while the clock line is HIGH.
Stop Bit
The stop bit is defined as a LOW-to-HIGH transition of the data line while the clock line is HIGH.
Slave Address
The 8-bit address of a two-wire serial interface device consists of seven bits of address and one bit of direction. A “0” in the LSB of the address indicates write mode, and a “1” indi-cates read mode. The write address of the sensor is 0xBA; the read address is 0xBB. This applies only when the SADDR is set HIGH.
Data Bit Transfer
One data bit is transferred during each clock pulse. The serial interface clock pulse is provided by the master. The data must be stable during the HIGH period of the two-wire serial interface clock—it can only change when the serial clock is LOW. Data is trans-ferred eight bits at a time, followed by an acknowledge bit.
Acknowledge Bit
The master generates the acknowledge clock pulse. The transmitter (which is the master when writing or the slave when reading) releases the data line, and the receiver signals an acknowledge bit by pulling the data line LOW during the acknowledge clock pulse.
No-Acknowledge Bit
The no-acknowledge bit is generated when the data line is not pulled down by the receiver during the acknowledge clock pulse. A no-acknowledge bit is used to terminate a read sequence.

Two-Wire Serial Interface Sample
Write and read sequences (SADDR = 1).
16-Bit WRITE Sequence
A typical write sequence for writing 16 bits to a register is shown in Figure 36. A start bit sent by the master starts the sequence, followed by the write address. The image sensor sends an acknowledge bit and expects the register address to come first, followed by the 16-bit data. After each 8-bit transfer, the image sensor sends an acknowledge bit. All 16 bits must be written before the register is updated. After 16 bits are transferred, the register address is automatically incremented so that the next 16 bits are written to the next register. The master stops writing by sending a start or stop bit.
Figure 36: WRITE Timing to R0x009—Value 0x0284
16-Bit READ Sequence
A typical read sequence is shown in Figure 37. The master writes the register address, as in a write sequence. Then a start bit and the read address specify that a read is about to occur from the register. The master then clocks out the register data, 8 bits at a time. The master sends an acknowledge bit after each 8-bit transfer. The register address should be incremented after every 16 bits is transferred. The data transfer is stopped when the master sends a no-acknowledge bit.
Figure 37: READ Timing From R0x009; Returned Value 0x0284
8-Bit WRITE Sequence
To be able to write one byte at a time to the register, a special register address is added. The 8-bit WRITE is started by writing the upper 8 bits to the desired register, then writing the lower 8 bits to the special register address (R0x0F1). The register is not updated until all 16 bits have been written. It is not possible to update just half of a register. In Figure 38 on page 60, a typical sequence for an 8-bit WRITE is shown. The second byte is written to the special register (R0x0F1).

8-Bit READ Sequence
To read one byte at a time, the same special register address is used for the lower byte. The upper 8 bits are read from the desired register. By following this with a read from the special register (R0x0F1), the lower 8 bits are accessed (Figure 39). The master sets the no-acknowledge bits.

Description of Measurement Conditions
Note: All measurements are done at nominal power supply voltages, at default settings, and at ambient room temperature except where noted. For microlens shifted array, mea-surements are performed in the window 32 × 32 pixels in the center of pixel array, where the signal value is maximum. All measurements in the dark are performed across the whole pixel array.
Measurement Conditions 1
A standard pattern box (luminance 706 cd/m2, color temperature of 3100K halogen source) is used as an illumination source. A lens with F5.6 and a standard CM500 IR-cut filter (t = 1mm) is used to project the image from a uniformly illuminated surface of the pattern box to the sensor. Signals in the center of each color plane, as an average of 128 frames, at default integration time and unity gain. Values of dark signals, (see “Measure-ment Conditions 6” on page 64) are subtracted from light signals. Green response and response comparison are calculated according to the following formula:
VG = (VGr + VGb)/2 (EQ 21)
Sg = VG (LSB) (EQ 22)
Rr = VR/VG (EQ 23)
Rb = VB/VG (EQ 24)
Measurement Conditions 2
Illumination source and lens-filter are the same as in “Measurement Conditions 1”. Image sensor characteristics are calculated for green pixels only, in a 16 x16 pixels windows for Gr and Gb color planes, in LSB on the sensor output. Saturation signal is measured at exposure 10 times higher than exposure corresponding to 500 LSB on the sensor output at unity gain:
Vsat = (VGrsat + VGbsat)/2 (EQ 25)

Measurement Conditions 3
The array is isolated from light. Readout noise – t – is measured as average temporal noise across the whole pixel array, as an average for Gr and Gb color planes. Readout noise is measured in LSB on the sensor output, using 128 frames, default integration time with two different settings for gain: unity gain and maximum analog gain (511/32).
Measurement Conditions 4
The array is isolated from light. Dark current is measured at maximum analog gain (511/32), across the whole pixel array, in LSBs on the sensor output, at sensor tempera-ture equal to 55°C.
Measurement Conditions 5
Illumination source and lens-filter are the same as in Conditions 1. PRNU (an average for Gr and Gb color planes) is calculated as a ratio of Fixed Pattern Noise to the Signal, for the signal equivalent to 50% of saturation (exposure time is adjusted), at unity gain, 16 by 16 pixels windows for Gr and Gb color planes, using 128 frames. Values of dark signals (see Conditions 6) are subtracted from light signals:
PRNUGr = (FPNGr / VGr) x 100% (EQ 26)
PRNUGb = (FPNGb/VGb) x 100% (EQ 27)
PRNU = (PRNUGr + PRNUGb) / 2 (EQ 28)
SNR (an average of Gr and Gb color planes) is calculated as a ratio of green signal to temporal noise at the signal equivalent to 50% of saturation (exposure time is adjusted), at unity gain, using 128 frames, 16 x 16 pixels windows for Gr and Gb color planes, according to the next formulas:
SNRGr = 20 log10 (VGr / tGr ) (EQ 29)
SNRGb = 20 log10 (VG / tGb ) (EQ 30)
SNR = (SNRGr + SNRGb) / 2 (EQ 31)
Measurement Conditions 6
The array is isolated from light. Dark signal non-uniformity is measured across the whole pixel array at default settings except gain, which is set to the maximum analog value (511/32). Dark signal non-uniformity (an average of Gr and Gb color planes) is calculated as a ratio of measured fixed pattern noise to the saturation signal (see “Measurement Conditions 2” on page 63):
DSNUGr = (32 * FPNGr / 511) / VGrsat x 100% (EQ 32)
DSNUGb = (32 * FPNGb / 511) / VGbsat x 100% (EQ 33)
DSNU = (DSNUGr +DSNUGb) / 2 (EQ 34)
Dynamic range (an average of Gr and Gb color planes) is calculated as a ratio of the satu-ration signal (see “Measurement Conditions 2” on page 63) to readout noise measured at the maximum analog gain value (511/32) (see “Measurement Conditions 3”), according to next formulas:
DynRGr = 20 log10 ((VGrsat / tGr) x (511/32)) (EQ 35)
DynRGb = 20 log10 ((VGbsat / tGb) x (511/32)) (EQ 36)
DynR = (DynRGr + DynRGb) / 2 (EQ 37)
